A few weeks ago, I saw a reader’s question about how to run PS3 cooling fans using an external electronics circuit. At the time I was busy with some other projects. The other day, I decided to put my ...

This post is a quick sequel of my previous article jam-packed with my personal experiences and observations while I was fiddling with standard 4-wire PC cooling fans. Today I will be talking about the ...

PWM or Pulse Width Modulation has generally been regarded as too complicated for PC fan speed control compared against using rheostats or linear voltage regulators such as the LM317. I present here a ...

If your computer's running a little loud for your tastes, it's probably because your fans are running at full speed—even if they don't need to be. Here are a few ways to manage your fan's speed so ...

Proprietary components are the bane of anyone who dares to try and repair their own hardware. Nonstandard sizes, lack of labeling or documentation, and unavailable spare parts are all par for the ...

Trying to get AIO Fan speed back to MB (BIOS says no CPU fan reported, but it can be ignored). Temperatures are not an issue. The thing is, no included cable, and the connector on the Fan Controller ...

Sometimes you need to generate a pulse-width-modulation (PWM) signal for your circuit to simulate a certain behavior. The technique described here generates a simple programmable PWM signal for less ...

Noctua today released its NH-P1 CPU cooler as well as the optional NF-A12x25 LS-PWM 120 mm fan. Custom-designed for fanless operation the NH-P1 is capable of cooling modern high-end CPUs with low to ...

Not cheap, but freakishly good though. Noctua today announced PWM versions of its renowned NF-P12, NF-B9 and NF-R8 fans. Having received more than hundred awards and recommendations from the ...

I have an NCase M1 and an open air GPU cooler so I use two fans at the bottom of the case to pull in cool air, displacing the hot air exhausted by the GPU. I'm currently using motherboard temperature ...
